More French! Painting Napoleonics aren’t that bad when they’re in greatcoats! More experimenting with washes here, trying to learn how the new AK ones work. Pretty good so far. Minis from Warlord Games.

Hi all,

I want to get some minis to play Sharp Practice (in 28mm/ French or British) but I'm lost on where to buy from. Originally I was thinking of getting Front Rank minis as I already have a small group and being bulky, made them easy to paint (being metal is also a plus). However, I see they are now £2 each and the reinforment packs are £12 for 6, which is a little steep.

What would you recommend? I've seen Perry's are good value but look a little slim when compared to Fronk Rank.

Are Warlord or Victrix good? Any other companies?

Thank you for any imput!

Red, black and white...

My model club is having a competition at Christmas with the theme of 'Red, black and white' which are the club's colours. I'm thinking of entering a figure or figures and I wondered if anyone could suggest a uniform with these colours. Perhaps Prussian? Grateful for any suggestions.

Hey,

I was hoping somebody wouldn't mind helping me out with how to expand a Peninsular Era French Army.

I'm new to Napoleonics from Bolt Action. I've been wanting to get into Black Powder for a while and Ive settled on the Perry Miniatures Imperial French Brigade.

Which units would people recommend to expand this set?

Thanks for any help.
